YouTube has come up with a competition to allow people to create a 2 - 7 Minute movie and requires 3 elements for the movie to work. This competition is restricted to only 7 countries (United States, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Brazil and Canada). All the rules are on the webpage at http://www.youtube.com/projectdirect
Direct an original film using specific elements outlined by award-winning filmmaker, Jason Reitman, and you could get the exposure you need to turn your craft into a career.
If you win, you’re going to a major international film festival where you’ll attend surprise industry events, meet with executives from Fox Searchlight Pictures, and show your film at a private event. You’ll also see your winning short broadcast on the home page of YouTube in countries all over the world, and you’ll win a $5000 debit card.
THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS NOVEMBER 9TH, SO START ROLLING!
And be sure to check out Fox Searchlight Picture’s community for aspiring filmmakers at my.foxsearchlight.com!
I thought that this would be something good to put on my blog for those filmmakers out there as it wasn’t that well advertised on the YouTube website.
